Why don't we get Bill Hader's character Stefon any more? it was hysterically FUNNY

Sometimes I run across them on YouTube and I always watch them again, if time permits.

Is Hader even with SNL now?

1. Bill Hader left the cast several seasons ago.

Loved that character.

2. When he left, did he leave the character of Stefon behind? Was it copyrighted to SNL forever?

4. I don't know about a copyright but Hader guest hosted 2 times after he left the cast.

He brought back the Stefon character both times.

8. Fun fact

Seth Meyers has a Stefon nesting doll on his desk at his Late Night show. It's small on on the right (viewer's right) side of them desk.

Bill Hader is a treasure and I miss Stefon.
